Costume Research Assignment

(Legally Blonde Remix) https://youtu.be/3hEwcM0MmeI
( This scene shows how in the end Vivienne realizes that Elle is actually more than just her "looks" and that she is just as smart as she is pretty. She hopes to get Elle to stay to finish and hopefully win the case!)

(This interview gives an overall good description of Viviennes character and personality throughout the entire musical.)

The pictures I chose show her personality and how she dresses very sophisticated and classy. She always looks stylish.

Poetry Analysis

Solitude by Ella Wheeler Wilcox is a poem about depression. It is explaining how people take from others what they want or need but in return don't give back to that person. They make the narrator feel like they do not matter, and that they are always used by others. It seems like everyone's happiness always comes first.

April Love by Ernest Dowson is a poem about a love that doesn't last. It describes a relationship between two people and the narrator is the one who knows that this love is coming to an end. Though they had a good time together and loved each other it is no longer enough.

Santa Claus in France

Of all the images I found these two were the best examples. Though when France celebrates Christmas now their Santa Claus may dress exactly as our own, this is how he was originally designed. He still wears red and is an older man with a beard, but he isn't as modern and his robes look more religious based on having crosses on them. I would need a type of crown or headdress instead of a red hat. He also wears a long red cape. I may have a few things that I can use.  I love the traditional costume.
